The U19 Asian Boxing Championships: Suman Kumari won her bout, but three other boxers could not get the desired result despite putting up a strong fight against much stronger opponents as the Indian boxing contingent had a mixed day at the U19 Asian Boxing Championships 2025, which kicked off here on Friday.

The U19 Asian Boxing Championships provides India’s rising stars a platform to showcase their skills and determination against some of Asia’s toughest opponents. The event will be followed by the U22 Continental Championships, and India has fielded a strong contingent of 40 boxers — 20 in each age group — with a perfect mix of proven champions and potential talents who have impressed in the domestic circuit.

In the morning session, Suman Kumari underlined Indian boxing's growing stature as she dominated Chinese Taipei’s Meng-Sin Cheng to earn a unanimous verdict in the Women’s Light Flyweight (48kg) category. The Boxing Federation of India (BFI) has picked a strong team of young boxers who will be hoping to make a good impression in the Continental championship.
